There is no question about it - hair is an important factor in every girls life. Some people think shoes complete an outfit, some believe jewelry is the glue, however, I truly consider hair being the icing on the cake. Your hair is a part of your face, and usually, your face is most notable with every first impression.You can have the most killer style, but with every bad hair day, a rocking outfit is wasted. So, to avoid flushing a trendy outfit down the drain, make sure to catch up on the latest hairstyles for fall 2016 - I know you'll adore them.

So, where to start? Before you can style your hair in a way that will make everyone double take, you need to be assured you have a fitting hair color. When you hear the word fall, you most likely think of the color red. Well, red is a popular hair color for this lovely season, but this year, fall is asking you to be a little more bold. "Mermaid" hair has hit an all time high.Everyone is walking into their hair salon asking for those beautiful pastel colors. You can go either way: stay in the safe zone and touch up your brunette or red roots, or you can challenge your image and add fun, vibrant colors in the mix. Be bold. Step out of your comfort zone, and allow your hairdresser to add some pinks and blues. Be fearless and stop worrying, because if you trust your hairdresser, they will make you the perfect candidate for the best hair of fall 2016.

Now that I have drilled "mermaid" hair into your brain, lets talk about how to style your hair so you can reach the final product. My absolute favorite hairstyle for fall 2016 is the topknot bun. The topknot bun has made a major comeback, and that's because it's a style almost everyone can pull off. The topknot bun is simple, yet sexy. Everywhere we turn we are seeing the topknot bun more frequently and the reasoning is simple - it kicks ass. You can style your hair like this with either a simple outfit, or an elegant one. It's always refreshing having a favorite hairstyle that could go either way because you will always have a fall back if needed. If you're unsure or don't have the confidence on how to conquer this hairstyle, watch a tutorial on YouTube. Watching tutorials is one of my favorite things to do, it'll teach you how to stay trendy.

Every girl needs to give their closet a little
(or a lot) of TLC. Lets be honest, when you're rocking a killer outfit you gain
confidence, and it may give you an indestructible feeling. Personally, I know I
feel like I climbed on top of the world when my outfit is on
"fleek." Fall is my favorite season for fashion. I love the basics of
fall - big sweaters, scarves, and leather boots. However, every fall, excitement
starts rushing through my body as I explore the new trends. Every fall the
trends shift, sometimes for the worse, but mostly for the better. This fall, I
have to admit, the trends are hotter than ever.

Velvet is
a popular trend for fall 2016. When you hear "velvet" being a trend,
your mind probably drifts away and flashes back to the velvet top every
grandmother wears to holiday dinners. Well, this fall, velvet is back, and it
does not resemble your grandmother's closet. When I say velvet is a popular
trend for fall 2016, I mean you can find anything in velvet. The two biggest trendy
velvet pieces are bodysuits and pumps. A trendy velvet bodysuit can be found in any clothing department, and they're a must for a
night out. However, if you're going on a casual dinner date, pairing a simple, yet cute outfit with velvet pumps can turn
simplicity into sexy. Next time you're shopping at Nordstrom or Express, make
sure to keep your eyes peeled for a piece of velvet clothing.

Mismatched
earrings are making an appearance again, and I can barley contain my excitement. This fall, you don't have to worry
about looking clean and crisp. The world of fashion is challenging you to buy mismatched earrings, and rock the hell out of them. Stumbling across mismatched earrings
in a clothing department is inevitable now. A couple years back when I discovered the beauty and funkiness of mismatched earrings, everyone looked at me as if I got ready with my eyes
shut. I kept on rocking my earrings and said, "wait a year, I bet you'll be wearing a pair
of mismatched earrings, too." Although it took two years for the trend to
blossom, I now say to my friends "I told you so," with a smile on my face.
